    • Caswell County Board of Health: 1911

      Yanceyville, April 6 [1911] -- "The county board of health, as created by the last General Assembly, met in the office of the superintendent of schools Monday. The board is composed of the following gentlemen: J. S. Harvey, chairman; Geo. A. Anderson, secretary, and B. S. Graves. In compliance of the law, Dr. J. A. Pinnix, of Anderson township, and Dr. J. F. Badgett, of Locust Hill township, were elected as additional members. The board will meet again on the second Monday in May at which time the county superintendent of health will be elected."

      The Reidsville Review (Reidsville, North Carolina), 7 April 1911, Friday, Page 1.

      This is the first mention found of the Caswell County Board of Health. The newly created group selected as the County Superintendent of Health Dr. Stephen Arnold Malloy, M.D. (1872-1944).

      J. S. Harvey most likely is John Shields Harvey (1864-1935). In 1911 he apparently was living in Pelham Township, Caswell County, NC.

      Geo. A. Anderson is George Andrew Anderson (1869-1945).

      B. S. Graves is Barzillai Shuford Graves (1854-1942).

      Dr. J. A. Pinnix is Dr. John Alexander Pinnix, M.D. (1846-1931).

      Dr. J. F. Badgett is Dr. James Farish Badgett, M.D. (1855-1933).
